[QUOTE="3278, post: 8171843, member: 658076"] My current subs - placeholders I picked up on Craigslist for a couple hundred bucks - are a pair of 12" Polk db subs in a slot-ported box, powered by a Polk mono sub amp. They're, you know, whatever, fine for the money I spent, but it's time to aim a little higher, or, in this case, much lower: these drop off pretty hard around 40hz, and that's not really enough for me. They're also [I]very[/I] boomy, and not accurate at all. My current plan, then, is a [I]sealed[/I] box, obviously, to get the accuracy I'm missing, and a beefier amp to make up for the loudness I'll be losing. But my focus beyond that is frequency response: I'm hoping to not start rolling off until 20hz or so. Any advice on subs and enclosures to achieve that [pretty reasonable, I think] kind of response?
